Done.

On a 82852/855GM is is nice to see native resolution again.
Unfortunately the blue squares replacing various text pixmaps maps the
system unusable within 30 minutes.

I also see some icon corruption as well.

I have not taken into account any kind of performance and in order to
avoid a lock-up you must disable visual effects as well.

Thanks,
